Here is mine, and 7", this pic is when she was in the QT tank. She has been in the 72G now for about a month. Even in there she looks HUGE. She was given to me 3 months ago, as her owner was shutting down his tank and selling it, was a 110G.
So I am guessing you should have a bigger tank in the future!
Have two big 6+" Siamese algae eaters/SAE and a giant 6" blue Gourami, (came from the same guy/tank) a few guppies, Cochu's Blue Tetras, Harlequin Rasboras, couple fiddler crabs, pair of Swordtails, Hillstream Loach, and Snails. I wanted to get a big bunch of Dwarf Cories for the tank, but I think between the three big fish better not, as the shark swims around like a shark, scaring the SAE out of the resting places. I don't think it is aggressive, just clearing out the riff raff from it's crusing ground.
She loves roving around the tank, and I make sure the perimeter floor can be navigated in a "circle" with a space also for the shark to do a figure 8 as well. She has a tree root to hide under...a real DW one, but also the fake one from the QT that it used to hide in, just to keep it feeling safe.
I was really worried she would be an angry meany.

Here's the new 72G and you can see there are lots of places to hide.

This pic isn't as good as the first, but you can see her in the front right.
